There is a sense of obligation to invite extended relatives and family friends, most of whom you haven’t seen in years! With destination weddings many couples limit the guest list to close family and friends only. You can save money by choosing an all inclusive package and also by having your wedding and honeymoon in one.
Spend more time with guests. Destination weddings present a unique opportunity to spend more time with guests. Many couples choose to celebrate their wedding over a few days, with pre and post wedding celebrations. Golf days, fishing trips, spa pamper packages and sunset cruises are all popular choices.
